Recumbent-gallery.eu

This is another stream of pictures from so known recumbent show in Germany. From 2005 we have more pictures of production recumbents than of homebuild ones. If you are interested more in work of homebuilders, let´s have a look into gallery from 2003, which we have posted few days ago.

You can clearly see that the bussines has been pretty much the same since that time without many great news like in market with upright bikes, where you can see each year new and new improvements.

Well, it is still question if the improvements are not only marketing so called “improvements”. But at least the world of upright bikes lives.

Here is one of the first set of recumbent pictures which we made in 2003 in Germersheim (D). You can see mainly recumbents made by homebuilders, but also few production recumbents from different brands. Quite interesting is the Cordes trike with only one bar. We do not know if this is common trike from some producer or if that is a way how Jan Cordes “improves” trikes and other bikes. If you know, post into the comments. Quite interesting is also the way of suspension of the front wheel. Does anybody have an experience?
